Plant Shelfie Bookends Collab with Cori Jacobs NOW CLOSED
Thanks to everyone who purchased a raffle ticket for these fantastic bookends! The winner will be announced on July 9 at 6:00 PM PST on Instagram Live. An email will also be sent, and the winner’s name will be added here after the 9th.
We raised $963 and sold 234 tickets for these! THANK YOU
Cori Jacobs is one of my longest standing art pals. We have collaborated on paintings in the past, and her colorful and whimsical style was a huge influence on my cityscape art style. She’s a Portland native but has been living in Mexico for over 20 years now. She has a gallery in Sayulita, full of her beautiful paintings, ceramics, and naturally dyed clothing. I have been fortunate enough to visit her and paint from her studio rooftop over the years, which has had a huge impact on my art and life. She’s a huge inspiration to me, and I’m delighted to be collaborating with her again.
About the Raffle
We made these Plant Shelfie Bookends specifically to raise money for and awareness of Com-Fusion, the ceramics community center we are building in Portugal. All the money raised will go to a savings account which will ultimately be used to pay for rent, ceramics equipment & materials, and all the things we’ll need to get this thing off the ground and hosting artists for classes, workshops, residencies and retreats. For me, this has been a dream my whole adult life (some twenty-five plus years). We already have the space for artist residencies secured, and are negotiating space for the community center! To start we’ll use Mariana’s existing space.

How we make them
These are made from a 6” planter with attached saucer that Nicole throws on the potter’s wheel. She then cut the planter in half attach a slab back to each half, and voila- Bookends! Cori painted the floral design with underglaze, and then carved accent lines to add depth and texture. They were glazed clear, fired, and then painted with 22 karat gold luster and fired again to make them really sing!
Each half has a drainage hole and is heavy enough to hold your books up for the ultimate plant shelfie. They also have a wire hook on the back to hang on the wall (please hang on a stud).
